《美人魚公主》
《美人魚公主》
在深海王宮裡，生活著一位美麗的美人魚公主。
每當她用美麗的歌喉唱歌時，所有的人都羨慕她。
然而，美人魚公主卻想要去看看外面的世界。
"我想聽聽小鳥的歌聲。"國王應允了她。
"當你15歲的時候，你可以去看看大海以外的景象。"！
"我都有點迫不及待了呢！"
終於等到美人魚公主的十五歲生日了。
這一天她浮上海面看見了一艘大船。
船上的甲板上站著一位英俊的王子。
公主對王子一見鍾情。
然而，突然間雷電襲來將船擊沉了。
王子失去知覺掉進了海裡。
"哦，不！王子掉進了海裡了。我得趕快去救他！"
美人魚公主救了王子並將他放在沙灘上。
公主照顧了他一整晚。
當王子睜開眼睛的時候，美人魚公主怕王子會被她的尾巴嚇到而躲了起來。
就在這時，一位鄰國的公主出海遊玩，她看見了王子。
公主遠遠的望了一眼總是在晚上出海遊玩的王子。
公主很傷心，她想成為一個人類，這樣她就可以和王子在一起。
她找到並詢問女巫。
好吧，我可以讓你變成人，但是你必須用你美麗的聲音作交換。
如果王子娶了別人，你就會變成泡沫。
所以你必須要嫁給王子。
在沙灘上，美人魚喝下了女巫給她的藥。
伴隨著劇痛，她慢慢變成人類。
就在這時，王子出來後看到了美人魚公主。
王子帶著不能說話的公主，回到了他的宮殿。
即使不能說話，她也很高興能伴隨在王子身邊。
可是，王子卻要和一位來自鄰居的公主結婚。
"我要和一位救了我性命的公主結婚"
救你的那個人是我啊！
可是，她說不出來。
晚上，美人魚公主的姐姐們來到海邊。
他們給了美人魚公主一把刀說：
"用這把刀刺死王子，你可以再次成為美人魚！否則的話，你會變成泡沫的。"
在婚禮之夜，美人魚公主握著刀子走向正在熟睡的王子。
但那是她心愛的王子，她下不了手。
"我變成泡沫是最好的結果。"
第二天清晨來臨時，美人魚變化美麗的泡沫，緩緩地升上了天堂。

The Mermaid Princess
In the deep, sea palace, there lived a mermaid princess.
Whenever she sang a song with her beautiful voice, everyone envied her.
However, the mermaid princess wanted to go to the outside world.
"I would like to hear the beautiful sound of birds. "The king promised her.
"When you turn 15 years old, you can go and see the life above the sea."
"Oh, I can't wait!"
Finally, it was the mermaid princess' 15th birthday.
She went up to the sea. The princess saw a great ship.
And she saw a handsome prince standing on the ship.
The princess fell in love with him at first sight.
However, as thunder and lightning struck, the ship sank on its side.
The prince lost his consciousness and fell deep into the sea.
"Oh, no! The prince fell into the water. Let me hurry and save him."
The princess saved the prince and laid him on the sand.
The princess took care of him all night.
When the prince opened his eyes, the mermaid princess hid from him. She thought he might get scared by her tail.
Just then, a princess from a neighbor land came out to see the sea and she saw the prince.
The princess watched from a far the prince who always came out to the sea at night.
The princess was very sad. She wanted to become a human so that she could be with the prince.
She asked the witch.
Okay, I will make you into a human, but you must give me your beautiful voice.
If the prince marries someone else, you will become a water bubble.
You must marry the prince.
On the sand, she drank the medicine that the witch had given her.
With the big sudden pain, she turned into a human.
Just then, the prince who came out to the sea saw the princess.
The prince took the princess who could not speak, to his palace.
Although she could not speak, she was happy to be living near the prince.
The prince was going to be married to a princess from a neighbor land.
"I will be marrying the princess that saved my life."
I am the one that saved your life.
But, her voice could not be heard.
At night, the mermaid princess' older sisters came up to the sea.
They gave the mermaid princess a knife and said,
"If you stab the prince with this knife, you can be a mermaid again. If you don't, you will become a water bubble."
On the night of the wedding, the mermaid princess was going to stab the sleeping prince with the knife.
But, she could not kill the loving prince.
"It's best that I just turn into a water bubble. "
When morning came, the mermaid turned into a water bubble and went up to heaven.
